Dark Magus Returns - Chapter 1147

Chapter 1147: Wind And Space
Fing landed in the middle of one of the areas where heavy battle was taking place, between demonic clan members and the countless number of golems.

It was the direction where Safa had pointed. Quickly, Fing looked around, in one hand he held his sword, in the other he held the gourd firmly in place.

He only scanned the area for a few seconds, before he leapt up in the air, and poured all of his Qi into his sword. With his other hand free, he then drank from the gourd, giving him a boost in energy.

The area around Fing started to turn incredibly dark, and everyone could feel an intense heat coming from above. This was Fing’s visual Qi that was starting to act up.

“Found you!”

Fing dived through the air, all of his attack pointed at one person in Pagna clothing. A man wearing a hood who was stood next to another large group of people.

“What is he doing, is he attacking us!” Some of the members shouted in fear, and started to run away, all apart from Fing’s target.

The man that stayed stationary flung his hands in the air, and before Fing reached the floor, a powerful large explosion had occurred, clashing with his Qi.

There was no smoke, it felt like an invisible power causing ripples. It had stopped Fing’s attack straight in its tracks, and he fell to the floor, now looking at his opponent.

His hood had blown off, revealing his face. It was an older gentleman with straight hair by its side, a heavy grey beard, but all of it was neatly kept and looked after.

It didn’t fit the typical look of a Pagna warrior.

“You found me, even with that girl’s help, she isn’t with you now, so you knew who I was among all of those people, I wonder how?” Garlon asked.

“When you have fought as many fights as I have, gone through as much as I have, you learn a few things,” Fing said. “You stayed far back, looking as if you were getting involved or helping, but the entire time your body was pointed towards me, ready for if I was to attack, you made it too obvious!”

Rayna had soon landed by her brother’s side, she had her special boots equipped and the spear in her hand as she looked ahead.

Her and her brother had one thing in common right now, a common goal, both of them wanted to get rid of the Deleter who had taken their brother away.

Both of them prepared themselves ready for the battle that was to take place.

“This is going to be interesting,” Garlon said as he placed both hands in the air and pointed it towards both of their feet.

A blast erupted in the air, completely silent, yet its force shattered the stone ground beneath them. Fing barely managed to twist his body, rolling away as the shockwave sent cracks racing across the battlefield.

Rayna, standing firm with her spear planted in the ground, remained unmoved. Her special boots absorbed the force of the blast, keeping her locked in place even as debris flew past her face. But she could see the real problem—there was no warning, no sound, no trace of where the next explosion would come from.

It wasn’t a typical explosion that they would face, without seeing it, it was hard to even know what to block or when to brace oneself.

Garlon was a wind and space mage. He stood just a few meters away, his tattered robes flapping wildly in the air despite the lack of wind. Now he had been discovered, he was going to use his powers to the fullest.

His long, thin fingers traced circles in the air, and each time he did, another invisible burst detonated somewhere in their vicinity.

Explosions were going off close to them, and loud bangs were heard to the left and right.

“Damn it, where is he targeting?” Fing gritted his teeth, rolling back up to his feet. He unscrewed the lid of his gourd, letting its energy siphon the lingering magic from the explosion that had just rattled him. Even if he couldn’t see them, he could feel their power.

Taking a quick swig, he felt his body surge with temporary strength, his muscles growing heavier with power.

“We can’t even see the attacks coming,” Rayna muttered, gripping her spear tighter. “I’ll try to rush him down.”

Fing nodded, knowing that if anyone could push forward, it was her. With those boots, Garlon wouldn’t be able to knock her away—if she could get close, she might be able to land a strike.

Rayna took a deep breath and then launched herself forward, dashing across the battlefield like a streak of silver. Her spear whirled, spinning in her grasp as she thrust forward—

Another explosion detonated just before she reached Garlon.

She skidded to a stop, spear raised to block, but the force of the air pressure was unbearable. Her arms shook as she held her stance.

The ground cracked beneath her boots, but they held her steady. She was completely immobile.

That was exactly what Garlon had been waiting for.

Another explosion erupted right at her feet.

The force smashed into her entire body, sending shockwaves through her muscles, rattling her bones. But she didn’t move—she couldn’t. Her boots kept her locked in place, but that only meant she had to bear the full brunt of the impact. A sharp pain ran through her ribs, and for the first time in the fight, she gasped.

“Rayna!” Fing shouted.

He moved, fast, trying to close the distance, but Garlon was faster.

With a flick of his wrist, another explosion tore through the space between them. Fing barely managed to block with his sword, the impact numbing his arms. He staggered back, reaching for his gourd and taking another swig, hoping to balance the power coursing through his body.

Garlon’s lips curled into a wicked grin. “You’re both wasting your time. You fight against something you cannot see—an enemy who strikes from nowhere. Surrender.”

Rayna coughed, wiping blood from the corner of her mouth. Her grip on the spear tightened. “Not happening.”

Garlon raised both hands, fingers curling as he activated his most devastating spell yet. Space twisted and distorted around them, a sudden force pulling in from all directions.

Rayna and Fing felt it instantly—the air around them was vanishing. It was like being caught inside an invisible dome, their lungs struggling against the weight of the spell. It wasn’t just an explosion this time.

He was collapsing space itself.

Fing’s knees buckled. Rayna gritted her teeth. This wasn’t something they could block. It was everywhere.

A deep hum resonated through the battlefield, an explosion ready to go off at any moment.

With a flash, both of them were grabbed, lifted up, and moved. Just seconds later, and the entire battlefield lit up in an explosion, destroying a large part of the ground.

The attack was devastating, but it hadn’t hit their target, because instead another one was holding them under his arms.

“Safa, you heal both of them. I will deal with this one,” Dame said.
